A Causal Analysis of Modal Syllogisms [PDF]

Generalized Causal Mediation Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesBiometrics, 2011
The goal of mediation analysis is to assess direct and indirect effects of a treatment or exposure on an outcome. More generally, we may be interested in the context of a causal model as characterized by a directed acyclic graph (DAG), where mediation via a specific path from exposure to outcome may involve an arbitrary number of links (or "stages ...

A Primer on Causal Analysis

open access: yesCoRR, 2018
We provide a conceptual map to navigate causal analysis problems. Focusing on the case of discrete random variables, we consider the case of causal effect estimation from observational data. The presented approaches apply also to continuous variables, but the issue of estimation becomes more complex.

open access: yesBiolinguistics, 2013
Noam Chomsky (2005) proposed that a ‘third factor’, consisting of general principles and natural laws, may explain core properties of language in a principled manner, minimizing the need for either genetic endowment or experience.

Computing the Integrated Information of a Quantum Mechanism

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
Originally conceived as a theory of consciousness, integrated information theory (IIT) provides a theoretical framework intended to characterize the compositional causal information that a system, in its current state, specifies about itself. However, it
